But among them all, Avalon Industries stands unmatched, boasting an ace no other Corp can claim: the ancient dragon Xivros himself. The singular surviving great dragon from the Cataclysm, Xivros' touch imparts immortality and unfathomable wisdom, allowing him to amass vast wealth through savvy acquisitions and the formation of Avalon's Horde of Gold. Now reigning supreme as Elysia's leading producer of arcane goods—from potions to artifacts—the Corporation has expanded into diverse industries, including luxury vehicles, advanced armor, textiles, heavy machinery, and more. > > With such a formidable and cunning patron backing them, Avalon employees embody unshakeable loyalty, relentless ambition, and an unwavering commitment to success. Failure is simply not an option when the wrath of Xivros looms. As Elysia's top megacorporation, Avalon sets the bar high for its rivals—those who dare to challenge this titan do so at their own peril. The Corporation's employees are imbued with a swagger and confidence born from knowing they answer to one who has mastered life's game and left all competitors in the dust. >[!history]- > >[!hier]- Organization >![[Avalon Org Chart.svg]] >[!base]- Stronghold >[[Camelot Arcology]] is the majestic heart of Elysia, a sprawling megastructure that houses the headquarters of Avalon Industries. The gleaming towers stretched towards the heavens, their surfaces polished to an almost liquid sheen by advanced cleaning drones that patrolled endlessly along their heights. > >The streets below buzzed with activity as drones and hovercars zipped through the air on predetermined trajectories, guided by complex networks of sensors and cameras that kept everything running smoothly. The aroma of exotic foods mingled with the scent of ozone from the latest tech innovations being tested in public spaces, drawing curious crowds to try out new virtual reality experiences or sample cutting-edge cybernetic enhancements. >[!ops]- Operations >>[!agenda]- Security Expansion >>As tensions between Great Houses escalate and regional stability grows increasingly tenuous, Avalon Industries sees opportunity knocking at its door. Under the guise of enhancing security for its valued clients, the company has been quietly expanding its private military arm—assembling highly trained operatives and investing heavily in the development of advanced weaponry. >> >>By leveraging these new capabilities, Avalon aims to secure lucrative contracts providing mercenary services, cybernetic enhancements, and other high-value goods to wealthy patrons willing to pay top credits for peace of mind amidst the chaos. As its private army grows stronger, so too does Avalon's influence over key decision-makers, paving the way for even greater power grabs in a future where brute force carries an ever-greater premium. > >>[!agenda]- Blight Research and Exploration >>In response to mounting pressure from concerned citizens and rival corporations alike, Avalon has recently taken steps towards containing the ever-expanding Blight. While publicly presenting itself as a champion of Elysian safety, the company's true motivations lie in preserving its own business interests within contested regions near the Blight. >> >>To this end, it has established covert research facilities focused on developing cutting-edge technologies capable of neutralizing or controlling arcane energy leakage. By offering these innovations selectively to key allies and clients, Avalon seeks not only to maintain a strategic advantage but also to position itself as an indispensable partner in combating the Continent's most pressing threats. > >>[!agenda]- Aethertech Development >>Avalon Industries has long been fascinated by the mysteries of arcane energy and its potential applications. As recent breakthroughs in magical research have unlocked new secrets, the company sees a golden opportunity to capitalize on this emerging field. Under the guise of scientific advancement, Avalon's researchers are tirelessly working to develop cutting-edge Aethertech - weapons and tools imbued with real-world magical properties. Through clandestine partnerships with gifted individuals and secretive arcane guilds, they aim to harness these energies for their own ends. >> >>By integrating magical components into their existing arsenal of high-tech innovations, Avalon seeks to create an unstoppable force: Aethertech-powered soldiers equipped with devastating arcane weaponry, cybernetic implants enhanced by enchantments, and other game-changing technologies poised to revolutionize the battlefield. With this secret agenda, Avalon aims not only to secure a monopoly on magical technology but also to reshape power dynamics across Elysia - giving its loyal operatives and elite customers an unbreakable edge in any conflict. Through stealthy acquisitions of key Aethertech assets and strategic manipulation of regulations governing its use, the company plans to establish itself as the uncontested leader in this new age of arcane innovation. >[!rumors]- Rumors >
